ORDER NO. PSC -2020 -0154 -PCO -EI <br />DOCKET NO. 20200001 -EI <br />PAGE 7 <br />under -recovery of $51.6 million, as part of its 2021 fuel cost recovery request. In support of the <br />requested treatment, FPL contends that by excluding the 2019 true up amount, it is maximizing <br />the effect of the May 2020 rate reduction. FPL's requested approach is, in principle, similar to <br />Tampa Electric's proposal relating to its 2019 capacity cost over -recovery, i.e., not incorporating <br />a prior period true up amount. Further, FPL has cited Order No. PSC -2019 -0109 -PCO -EI as <br />precedent where we authorized an electric utility to implement a mid -course correction that <br />excluded the prior year's under -recovery amount.) <br />As part of the mid -course correction filing, FPL updated its projections for purchased <br />power, qualifying facilities, and economy purchases due to the updated fuel pricing and input <br />assumptions. Regarding capacity cost recovery, FPL did not propose any changes to its <br />currently -approved factors. <br />Bill Impacts <br />Table 2 below displays the bill impact to a residential customer using 1,000 kWh of <br />electricity a month and further discusses the effects of FPL's request. <br />Table 2 <br />Monthly Residential Billing Detail at 1,000 kWh <br />Invoice Component <br />Currently- <br />Approved <br />Charges for <br />April 202016 <br />Currently- <br />Approved <br />Charges for <br />May 2020" <br />Proposed <br />Charges for <br />May 2020 <br />Approved to <br />Proposed <br />May 2020 <br />Difference <br />Approved <br />Charges <br />June -Dec. <br />2020 <br />Base Charge <br />$69.43 <br />$69.94 <br />$69.94 <br />$0.00 <br />$69.94 <br />Fuel Charge <br />18.97 <br />18.84 <br />(3.65) <br />(22.49) <br />18.84 <br />Conservation Charge <br />1.39 <br />1.39 <br />1.39 <br />0.00 <br />1.39 <br />Capacity Charge <br />2.30 <br />2.30 <br />2.30 <br />0.00 <br />2.30 <br />Environmental Charge <br />1.55 <br />1.55 <br />1.55 <br />0.00 <br />1.55 <br />Gross Receipts Tax <br />2.40 <br />2.41 <br />L83 <br />(0.58) <br />2.41 <br />Total <br />$96.04 <br />$96.43 <br />$73.36 <br />($23.07) <br />$96.43 <br />Source: FPL Petition, Schedule E-10. <br />FPL's current total residential charge for 1,000 kWh of usage for January through April <br />2020 is $96.04. Effective May 2020, we approved by Order No. PSC-2019-0484-FOF-EI, FPL's <br />2020 SoBRA, which would have increased the 1,000 kWh bill to $96.43. Applying the proposed <br />one-time fuel credit decreases the $96.43 bill to $73.36, or a reduction of $23.07 in May (23.9 <br />percent). <br />FPL has requested that it be allowed to return to the fuel adjustment factors approved by <br />Order No. PSC-201.9-0484-FOF-EI following the one-time May reduction.
